Chapter 512: Beyond The Dream World
Annan’s expression was a little complicated.
Hearing Dmitri’s words, it seed Dmitri already knew that Annan was a transmigrator in his first life.
In novels, things like this are usually hidden until the finale, right?
It is still expected to have upright deities like the Silver Sire, the Old Grandmother, and the Elegant Elder know that. How co even my siblings know that I am a world traveler?
Dmitri glanced at Annan and knew he was in deep thought, “Don’t overthink it, Annan.”
Even if he loses his mory, Annan is still Annan after all.
The man with long black hair and a cold deanor said, “You were the first person we t.
“The most significant difference between Austere-Winter and other countries is that we don’t na our babies. The babies don’t get nas until they grow up to be able to feed themselves, dress themselves, take care of themselves, and not starve to death at ho alone.
“People who can’t take care of themselves are not worthy of having a na, let alone inheriting a surna. At best, they are just pets.”
In Austere-Winter, the line between “man” and “beast” was not that far off.
Those who could not be called adults would only be treated as “cubs”.
Similarly, if soone committed a cri or did sothing that a human being should not do, he would be deprived of his human na.
A precedent would be Grinznuha·Austere-Winter, deprived of the surna “Austere-Winter”.
In Austere-Winter Dukedom, this was a severe punishnt under “family jurisdiction”.
If soone was deprived of his surna by his family, he was legally severed from all his kinship. This was not a matter of secretly stripping off the last na, but it must be reported to the local Austere-Winter Church. The declaration would be registered uniformly throughout the country every year.
For example, the right to bail with family mbers as surety, ho surveillance, and the right to inherit or be inherited would be rendered void. The outco was irreversible. It was like labeling the person’s identity as an orphan who “had no parents and no relatives”.
Other Austerians usually regarded the “outcasts” from the family as people who “disrespect tradition”, “have made major mistakes”, and “were deviant”.
If one’s na was stripped off, it was tantamount to depriving all rights as a human being.
If one had murdered “a naless person”, he would not even be convicted of homicide. Instead, it was the “cri of destroying other people’s property” or “cri of destroying public property”.
Generally, criminals succumbed to imprisonnt for more than 20 years, but it did not reach the parater of the death penalty yet. Or, criminals with sufficient weight in terms of punishnt would be sentenced to “na removal” by the Austere-Winter Dukedom.
It was not just delisting in the legal sense.
Instead, Idol Magic would apply to erase their na in this world under the mystical realm. With the contract he signed, all the rituals related to his na were also erased, and others could no longer recall his na.
In other words, they beca people who the world had forgotten.
In the Austere-Winter Dukedom, where “you are born after you get a na”, nas were vital. It was one of the “components of being a human”.
“However, you gave yourself the na [Annan].” While talking, Dmitri subconsciously put his hand into his inner pocket and touched the cigar packet.
But soon, his right hand froze as if reminded of sothing. He moved his hand out of his arms uncomfortably.
As if covering up sothing, he raised his voice slightly, “The person we know is ‘you’ from the beginning.
“You have lost many mystical mories. You may have forgotten… In this world, visitors from other worlds are common. Austere-Winter Dukedom is even more so—”
Near the Storm Tower, there were occasional living immaterial world creatures seeping out from the hole.
Immaterial world creatures could not obtain material bodies directly after entering the Mist World, which was the world where the Mist Continent was located. That was because the immaterial world was a world where [Phenonon] was superior to [Existence], thus giving the na “immaterial world”.
The core power system of the Mist Continent was curse and oath.
The “elents” and the primitive form of the elent, “Sage’s Stone”, were transcended power belonging to the immaterial world.
An example would be Father Flint, who stole fire, in Annan’s knowledge.
The Sage’s Stone in the immaterial world was equivalent to the spell energy in the Mist World. It was the root power of the world. After Father Flint stole the Sage’s Stone from the immaterial world, only then this world had this “elental power”.
“The ‘elent’ was the form of existence determined by the will and the strength born from the soul and mind. Therefore, it reflected the characteristics of the immaterial world.” Dmitri explained, “In other words, after immaterial world creatures enter this world, they must reside in the human body to survive. At least they need a sentient creature with a will.
“Also, the ‘mind body’ can be understood as the consciousness born in the dream world. The dream world is the link between many worlds. The volu of the dream world is the largest among the known worlds. It has no concept of ti, and there are even other worlds at the end of it.
“In principle, it’s not just nightmares with the the of ‘our world’s history’. It’s just that no one has ‘mories of other worlds’.
“I’ve heard that there is a special ancient profession called Dream Walker, who can enter the dreams of other worlds. It’s just that the Mysterious Lady buried this ‘secret’.
“It is not entirely impossible for a soul to fall into this world from the other side of the dream world. A powerful Dream Walker can forcibly capture a soul from another world to this world; if it is an unknown creature native to the dream world, it is said it allows the soul to enter other worlds without losing mory. As you said before, you should be the second type.
“As far as I know, among the deities, the Red Knight and the Bell Ringer Oik were born into this world from different worlds through the dream world. Lady Luck passed through the dream world in the form of flesh and ca to us from an unknown world. This matter is no secret in the Papal Kingdom.
“A soul that can cross the dream world ans that it is born with the ability to remain fully awake in nightmares. This guarantees that every soul that cos from the other side of the dream world must be able to beco a transcender.
“Actually, this is the second ti I’ve discussed this topic with you.”
Annan had teased “Suuankou’s Adventures in Wonderland” previously.
However, there ca the other side of the story where it beca ‘Annan’s Adventures in Wonderland’.
A world adjacent to the dream world?
Annan was lost in thought.
In other words, Annan’s original world should also be adjacent to the dream world.
If the Dream Walker could enter the dreams of other worlds, there might be a certain degree of knowledge of the dream world on Earth.
It was just that it was definitely not called the “Dream World” over there. Just like “Mist World” was not really called the “Mist World”.
Could it be a fantasy land?
Please not. In that case, my boss could be…
Annan had a complicated feeling.
He shook his head, dispelling the wild thoughts.
He suddenly noticed another detail, “Wait, did you say a born transcender?”
—If this is the case, why would I choose the path of ritual in the past?
